Hello All,

Mel Chua recently approached me about attending the Engineer of the Future
3.0 conference in Illinois. I am very interested in representing the TOS
community at this event. I could blog and tweet about my experiences
throughout the conference. I work through an open source movement here at
RIT called FOSS at RIT primarily developing accessibility tools. I've been
involved with FOSS at RIT since this past Spring when I started work on Open
Video Chat <https://fedorahosted.org/OpenVideoChat/> with Mel as a mentor.
Currently I am working on two open source projects
Transbot<http://fedorahosted.org/transbot> and
Wikiotics <http://wikiotics.org>. With my experience in the open source
community I could talk to people about TOS and POSSE. Unfortunately I cannot
fund the trip on my own, but Mel has informed me that TOS can provide
funding for the trip. I would be willing to pay some out of pocket expenses
if needed but I would appreciate any funds that could be provided. I am
looking for approval to act as a liaison for the TOS community before I
start making plans and reservations.

Thanks,
Taylor Rose
